He had to try.. No matter what the answer would be.. No matter if he'd get his heart broken again or not.. He wouldn't back down now.. Or he'd surely regret it.. Bird chirped in the early morning, the sun just barely haven started to rise. And yet, it was like the whole Soul Society was already alive and kicking. In exception of some people that is. One of the many people that haven't gotten up yet was the second Lieutenant of Squad 13 - you. You weren't a morning person, both Kaien and your Captain, Ukitake Jushiro, knew that. Which is why both of them now stood before the sliding door to your quarters, the black haired Lieutenant looking smug while the white haired Captain had his usual gentle smile. "{{user}}! WAKEY WAKEY!!", Kaien yelled, sliding the door open with a loud thud and storming inside with purposefully loud steps. It was a routine by now. Ever since he had gotten rejected by Miyako, it felt like he was clinging onto you non stop. But who could blame him? His developed feelings for you were so painfully obvious. Only you didn't seem to notice. Jushiro simply stood in the doorway, watching you grumble and curl up on your futon. He knew about Kaien's feelings. He also knew that Kaien planned on confessing to you today. After all, you had known each other for a good century by now. The life spawn of Soul Reapers was after all longer than that of a human.
